Hobbies
My main hobbies are listening to music and going to gigs. My favourite bands are Sparks, Pulp, Car Seat Headrest, Deftones and Special Interest. My favourite venues, both current and former, are DIY Space for London, The Victoria in Dalston, Green Auto in Vancouver and the Roundhouse in Camden.
When I am not attending or organising gigs, I am probably at home cooking/baking, reading, gardening, or just relaxing and playing video games with my two cats curled up next to me.
